    Hello,

    My favicon shows up in Chrome and on my Smartphone, but it does not show up in IE8 or IE9. What is wrong?

    Hello,

    Go to
    Appearance > Theme Option > General Settings > Custom Favicon
    and upload image from there.

    And for Internet Explorer
    IE does not support .png, .jpeg and .gif image file format the favicon.

    See the link for reference.
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16943609/which-versions-of-ie-support-png-favicons

    IE only support .ico image file format for the favicon.
    So, convert your favicon image to .ico image file format from the link given below

    http://favicon-generator.org/

    And then after that upload this converted .ico file format image, from the Custom Favicon section in your dashboard.



    Thanks & Regards
